About this file

This is a product specification cut sheet for Shakespeare O-Series Direct Burial Composite Light Poles submitted in support of a Connecticut state and local contract opportunity to furnish 30 direct bury composite street light poles and 30 LED luminaires. The specification document details the ordering information, installation requirements, and performance standards for round tapered composite light poles manufactured by Shakespeare-Valmont Composite Structures, Inc., located in Newberry, South Carolina. The poles are available in mounting heights up to 20 feet with overall lengths ranging from 13 to 24 feet, featuring smooth, semi-smooth, or natural finishes in three standard colors (black, gray, dark bronze) and five premium colors (brown, light green, silver, white, dark green). Each pole includes a standard 2.5" x 5" handhole located 18 inches above grade, two 2.5" x 6" wire access holes positioned 24 inches below grade, and an integrated anti-rotation flare at the base for structural stability during direct burial installation.

The poles are constructed using a filament winding process with a minimum of 65 percent "E" type fiberglass by weight and thermosetting polyester resin, providing both axial and compressive strength through helical and circular winding patterns. Material specifications require ultraviolet-resistant, pigmented resin with a weather-resistant polyurethane coating of at least 1.5 mils thickness, flame resistance per ASTM D635, and 5,000 hours of accelerated UV testing per ASTM G154 with results showing no fiber exposure, crazing, or chalking. Wind loading capacity tables are provided for wind speeds ranging from 90 to 150 miles per hour based on ANSI C136.20 standards with a 3-second gust factor, with maximum luminaire weights varying from 150 pounds for shorter poles to 100 pounds for poles 15 feet and taller. Each pole is individually identified with a permanent embossed tag, tested, packaged separately for shipment, and available with optional tenon tops (hot-dipped galvanized steel or 6061-T6 aluminum) or drilled and capped configurations to accommodate specified lighting fixtures or mast arms.

1. Lighting poles shall be fiberglass reinforced composite per Shakespeare design.

2. Wind loading shall be calculated for the appropriate wind velocity with a 3 second gust factor per ASCE.

3. Effective projected area (EPA) is the actual area adjusted with the appropriate drag coefficient (shape factor) to result in an equivalent area having a drag coefficient equal to one (1) using ANSI 136.20

MATERIALS

1. The round tapered pole shall be constructed by the filament winding process from thermosetting polyester resin and contain a minimum of 65 percent “E” type fiberglass by weight. The filament windings shall be continuously applied with uniform tension and shall be placed on the pole helically at low angles to provide axial strength. Additional windings shall be placed on the pole in a circular manner to provide compressive strength.

2. The resin to make the pole shall be ultraviolet resistant and pigmented approximately the same color as the final coating to be applied.

A highly weather resistant, pigmented, polyurethane coating shall be applied to the pole. The coating shall have a minimum thickness of 1.5 mils.

3. The poles shall be flame resistant per ASTM D635. Specimens must cease to burn before the gauge mark of 100mm (3.9 inches) is reached.

4. (If applicable) The poles shall be delivered predrilled and capped (if applicable) to accommodate the lighting fixture(s) or mast arm(s) specified.

5. (If applicable) Tenons shall be permanently bonded to the fiberglass shaft and shall be hot-dipped galvanized steel to ASTM A153 or shall be 6061-T6 or A356-T6 aluminum.

6. The handhole opening shall be 2.5" x 5". The handhole cover is attached with a 1/4" socket head screw.

Wind speed (mph) values calculated as per ANSI C136.20 for a 3-second gust factor.
